Sun Ra..."Where Pathways Meet" (unreleased acetate mix)...Bob Blank--The Blank Generation...(Strut)
A collection featuring material recorded at Bob Blank's Blank Tapes operation. Some cool cuts from Lydia Lunch, Blood Ulmer and this funky Sun Ra tune.
Lloyd Miller..."Gol-e-Gandom" (version 2)...A Lifetime In Oriental Jazz...(Jazzman)
Salt Lake's legendary eastern jazz explorer has had some of his music released via the fine UK labels Jazzman & Strut. Highly recommended for those who find themselves drawn to the music of Alice Coltrane or Ahmed Abdul-Malik. It is groundbreaking like that.
Ruy Mingas..."Kolonial"...Africa Negra...(Sava)
Los Araguatos..."La Negra"...Gaitas...(CBS-Venezuela)

Obscure single out of Salt Lake, heavy minimal dub with sitar. Picked up at Salt Lake's recommended punk spot Raunch Records.
Soul Rebels..."Sweet Dreams Are Made of This"...Unlock Your Mind...(Rounder)
I received a few phone calls about this fun brass band rendition of the Eurythmics classic. These guys made the festival rounds last year.
Ebo Taylor..."Nsu na Kwan"...Appia Kwa Bridge...(Strut)
Nice new album by the Ghanaian highlife star with Tony Allen on this and other cuts. Produced by Ben Wolff.
Stephen Chai & No-Nation Orchestra..."More More More"...12"...(Nobaloney)
Excellent Utah-based band with a gorgeous 12" release, colored vinyl and all. Some King Crimson and afrobeat influences are immediately detected.
Sophistafunk..."Listen Up"...Twentyeleven...(Funk is so Phat)
These guys were kind enough to send along some vinyl! Check them out this weekend in New England. Check their tour schedule here.
Soulive w/ Karl Denson..."Povo"...Spark! 12"...(Royal Family)
A tribute to jazz-funk guitar great Melvin Sparks. This record features some fine versions of tunes by Yusef Lateef, Art Farmer and this Freddie Hubbard classic. Recorded right around the corner from my place!
Budos Band..."Day Tripper"...45...(Daptone)
Excellent destroy-the-Beatles cover! When I saw them live they announced this as "Acid Triper".
